You LMS guys just can't seem to get over the Gresley A4's being the most beautiful locos ever built and at the same time the fastest !

Johnwhit and myself managed to get some nice shots of a former LNER Gresley A4 locomotive at St Helens yesterday.

Now I did mention in the gallery that I thought the A4 pacific engines sounded a bit tinny compared to the wonderful Stanier locomotives we had on the LMS.

This has prompted a response from David (David Trout a staunch LNER man) who has given a full explanation as to why the eastern locos sound like they do and indeed has educated me a little.

Looking at the images I had taken I noticed something written in very small letters at the bottom of the cab on the A4, On zooming in I couldn't believe what I was seeing. (see attached image)


David, a little more explaining please
